    If you read the article, it says this is for federal law enforcement roles. States typically do not have that information since these people don’t work for the state.

    Also, many of these internal affairs investigations do not hit the press, which makes a private effort pretty difficult to pull off. Your net will have a lot of big holes.

      Since you must know a lot about this subject from your comment, you must also then know that any complaints resulting from federal law enforcement officer actions must also be filed and reported with the local jurisdiction where the complaint originated. Also a federal law.

      This is under the purview of the DOJ at the federal level, but every state has their own codified rules on making this public. The 12 largest states have open reporting, with mostly southern states making this confidential.
